This reads to me like you’re making a universal claim that these things aren’t useful—based on “Some of these concepts are useful. Some aren’t” and “I recommend evicting from your thoughts”.
If that is your claim, I’d like to see lots more evidence or argument to go along with it—enough to balance the scales against the people who have been claiming to find these things useful.
If what you are saying is more that you don’t find them useful yourself, or that you are skeptical of other people’s claims that they are getting use out of these things, that is another matter entirely! Although in this case I’m left wondering why your call to action is “people should stop using these things” rather than “could people explain to me how they get use out of these things?”
Personally, I’ve had wins from thinking things through—in advance—when using the concepts of Stag Hunts and Kegan levels. All of the instances I can remember where while I was managing teams of people, so maybe they have different amounts of usefulness in different contexts?
